Arrington's article is a big old whitewash as far as I can tell. On the one hand he's saying "I don't know why women aren't in IT, stop blaming me" but then on the other hand his comments are full of vitriol. Everyone who's commented expressing a differing opinion has been "flagged for review", meanwhile shit like this: http://techcrunch.com/2010/08/28/women-in-tech-stop-blaming-... goes unchecked.

Which is the point of this article: The tech world is a very unwelcoming place if you're an outsider (and sometimes even when you're an insider, which Michelle Greer apparently is).




Nice downvote - want to back it up with some argument?
